Try silver shampoo on the bohyme it strips the yellow right out.  I've just done an install like that, haven't uploaded pictures on my site yet but its a right ashy blonde now.
 
This client absolutely loves pro-tac, she had her first refit last weekend and the bohyme felt like the day it was installed.  This client had very very badly broken hair from fusion and it was in such better condition this weekend after wearing pro-tac for two months she couldn't believe it x

Though there's not many, I have seen a few reports that the bonding strips just will not stay put in some people's hair. Instead of installing a full head, put just two rows in the back and ponytail it for about 2 days. Do your first wash on the third day and only use conditioner well past the area where it's bonded. If the strips slip right out, maybe they're not for you.

You're gorgeous, btw. The Bohyme install looks really nice.

Thanks guys. I''ve been wearing clip-ins in the meantime, since I haven't had a moment to spare to redo the pro-tac. I'll try again in the morning with dish soap!
 
 
The hair I used is Euro human hair from when I had an over-paid extensionist. It's AMAZING hair. Got charged a ton, but the hair is so silky and manageable. The source I will never be able to uncover.
 
My last diy fusion install I used Bohyme...it was ok....still yellowish even after toning.
 
Before pics...ack.....maybe if I block out my face...since my extensions are secretLOL

Press press press them in after install.....and when you think you have pressed enough...press some more! And like nursie says "shoot the hairdryer on the pro-tacs"
 
Try to wait a couple of days to wash

your hair looked gorgeous in the pic......i know its disappointing for it to all fall out, but thats the good thing about Protac: just stick it all back in.........
 
wash your hair with a clarifying shampoo(some people use Dawn dishwashing liquid.....or Prell shampoo) to get all oilyness out of your hair.....after you install shoot the hair dryer on the Protacs and 'squish' them between your fingers good....
 
ahh, i love the Protac method so much i want it to work for you, so i wish you good luck!

Oh honey thats gorgoues, sorry to hear that it fell out, that happend to me to the first cuple of times, what i have found is waiting a cuple of days before washing your hair is a good ide, and also kinda squishing the bonds now and then to make the protac stick more to your hair. Also keep off condtioner from the tapes...it goes le bye bye then
 
Hope it works out for jah honey
12 Inch Wawa, Installed with Protac, i love hair extensions<3

hey - that looks fantastic woman! what kind of hair did you use?
 
it seems like the success people have had with protac is not washing too soon after install, blow drying the tapes after washng.....people here have had different success with the same shampoo/conditioner so that seems a bit more variable.
